A key fob is a device that consists of a computer chip as well as a metal shell. When it is near an reader on the fob, copper coils on both sides of the fob are energized and convert the radio frequency signal into electricity. The power then flows to the microcomputer inside the fob. It then transmits an unique number that acts as a credential for identification.
The key fob will be shown to the reader so that the key fob's number stored in the memory can be matched. This process, commonly referred to "key-matching", is used by the security system of the vehicle to verify that the owner is authorized. Once the keys match to the reader, they will be able to start the car and unlock the doors.
